![]() The bulk of application operations are conducted under the installed services display and the still images display. What you will notice are three major separate view parts of the application – installed services where websites and services are located, categories where downloaded images are located and still images where the application thumbnails and icons are displayed and sorted. ![]() When you run the application for the first time ever, each important part of the screen will be marked with instructions on h0w to run the application. So the application update basically downloads a fresh version installer which was a little bit of a let down to me. If you do choose to upgrade the entire application, it will launch into a setup where you basically overwrite the previous version. You have to update the app and then plugins, this is also somewhat understandable. You cannot choose to upgrade plugins if there are is a new application version available. Through the update screen, you can choose which plugins you want to update or if you’d like to update the entire application. If you choose to do so, it will display a really nifty update screen, which is the most aesthetically pleasing portion of the application in my opinion. The first thing the application does upon first time start-up is ask if you’d like to check for updates. This is somewhat understandable, a developer needs to eat after all. However if you want to unlock more of the application with more impressive features such as plugins for adult sites, you have to purchase the premium pack. Its a very small light weight application. Installation goes by in less than a minute. If the application is downloading thumbnails or pics, it becomes unresponsive.You have to purchase a premium pack for more plugins and options.You cant back pictures or downloaded content up.You cannot stop thumbnail or image downloads when they start.It will keep downloading thumbnails and images from the internet even if you’ve selected that plugin before in the same run session, instead of it caching the thumbnails and allowing you to choose when you want to download.There isn’t an easy way to create or select your own plugin.Has a comprehensive error report screen for each plugin. ![]() ![]() You can back settings, categories and created icons up.Allows you to disable, uninstall or install plugins.Comes with a great picture viewer screen for previews.Categorizes images from websites efficiently. ![]() Option to close completely or minimize to tray.It provides you with a number of picture services – basically a list of picture blogs and websites to peruse and download images from such as deviantART and 4Chan. The Image Collector, as the name would imply, is an image collection tool developed and created by Bootblock. The Image Collector (TIC) actually does a good job of fulfilling that wish. I used to wish that there was a tool I could use to search the internet for the coolest images to use as backgrounds and wallpaper without opening my browser up. Sometimes I’ll spend that hour searching to exhaustion but never finding anything that inspires me to add it to my line up of changing desktop backgrounds. I could spend hours searching the internet for something to make my desktop look even prettier. ![]()
